The Indiana Credit Union League recently presented Ralph Marvel, chairman of the board of directors at Central Federal Credit Union in Indianapolis, with the Volunteer Achievement Award for 2002.

The Volunteer Achievement Award recognizes credit union volunteers who have given of themselves to promote the credit union ideal and to better the credit union movement in Indiana.

Marvel's experience spans several Indiana credit unions including Clark Equipment FCU, Madison County FCU and Avondale FCU. While at each of these credit unions, he was involved in numerous product and service additions, growth strategies and general improvements that resulted in allowing the credit unions to better serve their members.

Marvel has worked with credit unions for more than 30 years in various positions at the trade association. Many Indiana credit unions are in existence today because of his work. Between 1963 and 1975, Ralph organized 60 to 70 credit unions then nurtured them through their first years to ensure their success.

The award presentation was part of the Indiana Credit Union League's annual meeting and convention, which was held in Indianapolis September 19-21.
